Just been announced on the news, concessionary bus travel England is to be scrapped from October.
   England's taking the brunt of the cuts again.
They are continuing in other parts of the uk, Bl***y unfair  

[cleggy]

Does that mean I won't get my bus pass in 6 months time?

[Varche]

Time for an Epetition. This discrimination has got to stop.

My Dad will be gutted as he uses the (free) bus most days to go and see/help other old folk.

I believe its concessions for coach tours for over 60,s and the disabled. I didnt even know it existed but apparently they get half price on coach tour holidays which commence in England.
Afaik it doesnt affect the normal bus passes.

I stand corrected But they still get the half price for tours start in Wales

[albitz]

I agree that its wrong.Everyone in the UK should have the same treatment.

[alfie]

I didn't know that disabled persons (and I am one of those) could get these concessions, although by me living in Wales I will still be able to.
I agree it seems that discrimination is being practised against those living in England,we enjoy free parking at hospitals,free prescriptions,and we keep our travel perks.
Time to start writing to your MPs I think.

[the alarming man]

Same old conservatives...picking on the O.A.P's...how long is it going to be before we see an O.A.P dieing on a hospital trolly...Not long I fear 

[albitz]

Labour hardly looked after the elderly did they ?
Brown robbed and plundered everyones pension funds to give them money to waste on their innumerable hair brained schemes.

In the short term they did TBH...one thing is for sure this crowd as shown after the events of the past month (riots,looting) they shouldn't be running a child tea party let alone a country 

[albitz]

Im not a big fan myself, but I cant see how any govt. could ever be as bad as the previous shower.I hate them with a passion.
And the money that now needs to be saved is due to the fact that Labour wasted countless billions with nothing good to show for it.
They mismanaged the countries finances on a scale which should have resulted in serious criminal charges being brought.
